Hurrah! BlueSky now takes advantage of an iPad screen when in landscape orientation! Thanks, @bsky.app, it no longer feels like an iPhone 3G! Now all that’s left is for you to persuade the celebrities, politicians and media/news outlets to come over and actually use the app.

Anyone remember this shop and know the name of it? Is it still there?

In the late 80s early 90s student me frequented a bookshop in Leicester Square with a “ha-herm downstairs bit”. On a tiny shelf stashed in a corner was quite a lot of gay porn. Magazines & later videos, harder than your usual Vulcan or HIM. I couldn’t afford any of it but I was glad it was there.

Today was a good day. I had to be grumpy and stand my ground but I got my home insurance company to change the direct debit billing day AND waive their late payment charge that they were gonna screw me for!

So @zackpolankski.bsky.social has lost the #HolbornStPancras by-election to a woman who thanked the man who said Israel had the right to cut off water, fuel and electricity to Gaza. Let’s #neverforget the genocide that this Labour government has been complicit in.

Join me on GB News where I will be lying about what Andy Burnham said, pretending to give a shit about pensioners and definitely not mentioning any £5m gifts, illegal donations or police investigations.

In 2003 I was faced with a choice between a second hand VW Polo or a Clio. I wonder if I’d chosen the Polo, life would’ve turned out differently for the whole planet? Like a #slidingdoors moment. No socials, more money, better relationships, no genocide etc…?

Don’t forget to give the video a hype!

Haven’t bought a hi-fi magazine since around 2011. Rega said the Planar 3 RS was in What Hi-Fi?’s 50th anniversary issue, so I got it. Three quite different turntables. All given 5 stars. Thoughts on whether those ratings still tell you much, plus a bit of magazine nostalgia. youtu.be/NkOytQx4NrE

I can’t stand #SaudiArabia. They’ve caused a huge humanitarian crisis in the #Yemen, using weapons supplied by the #USA. If I went there I’d be thrown in jail for being gay. Please don’t let them use our airbases.

Saudi Arabia is a murderous dictatorship. It is guilty of heinous war crimes in Yemen. Years ago, I went to a Yemeni refugee camp. I met little kids who drew pictures of what Saudi bombs did to their loved ones. Shame on the British government.
